16 Easter Nail Designs That Are Cute, Colorful, and Not-at-All Cheesy
Easter is a joyous weekend of decorating eggs, eating chocolate, and relaxing with family in balmy weather. Everything from the mood to the decor is vibrant, which makes it the perfect time to get a manicure that is just as cheery.
Now that our hands aren’t living in mittens, we’ve curated a list of Easter nails for all to marvel at. You’ll find bunnies, eggs, and floral accents painted on an array of pastel and bright nail polishes. Get screen-shotting, because you’ll want to get in a couple of these playful nail looks before spring is out.

This one is for Easter-candy lovers. The minimalist design features a baby pink base with a pastel yellow accent nail, plus a scattering of multicolored sprinkles. If you’re feeling up for it, try it at home using a small art brush to create those delicious sprinkles.

Not all of your nails have to match. That’s why we love this design, which includes orange French tips, tiny carrots, and an adorable bunny. The reason this manicure still feels cohesive despite its multiple designs is because the color palette is consistent throughout.

Add dainty, multicolored flowers to your French manicure for the holiday. Use a dotting tool (you can get one from a beauty supply or craft store) to carefully create your petals.

We can’t think of a better bunny with which to decorate our nails than Sanrio’s character Miffy. Ask your nail artist to combine the design with a pink ombrè effect for a more eye-catching manicure.

A bunny-shaped French manicure is pretty genius, if you ask us. This one probably requires a trip to the salon since just painting on regular French tips is difficult enough, let alone cute bunny ears.
